Cheap Centipede-like trackballs, PSX interface

Would anyone be interested in buying trackball units for the PSX ? The mechanism and ball is licensed from Atari I believe, and is very comparable in weight, size and smoothness to the Centipede trackballs.
The idea would be to hack one apart, put it in a homemade controller and interface it with a PC - as an alternative to the expensive Happ trackballs, and definately a better 'feel' to the CompUSA type hacks.

I've got quite a few, have no other use for them so they'd go very cheaply indeed. Just post a reply or email me if you're interested.

I am located in the UK, but will ship anywhere as cheaply as possible.
